Install TensorFlow 2

TensorFlow is tested and supported on the following 64-bit systems:

Python 3.9–3.12 Ubuntu 16.04 or later Windows 7 or later (with C++ redistributable)

macOS 10.12.6 (Sierra) or later (no GPU support) WSL2 via Windows 10 19044 or higher including GPUs (Experimental)

# Requires the latest pip pip install --upgrade pip # Current stable release for CPU pip install tensorflow # Current stable release for GPU (Linux / WSL2) pip install tensorflow[and-cuda] # Or try the preview build (unstable) pip install tf-nightly

Download a package

Install TensorFlow with Python's pip package manager.

TensorFlow 2 packages require a pip version >19.0 (or >20.3 for macOS).

Official packages available for Ubuntu, Windows, and macOS.

Read the pip install guide

Run a TensorFlow container

The TensorFlow Docker images are already configured to run TensorFlow. A Docker container runs in a virtual environment and is the easiest way to set up GPU support.

dockerpulltensorflow/tensorflow:latest# Download latest stable image docker run -it -p 8888:8888 tensorflow/tensorflow:latest-jupyter # Start Jupyter server Read the Docker install guide

Google Colab: An easy way to learn and use TensorFlow

No install necessary—run the TensorFlow tutorials directly in the browser with Colaboratory, a Google research project created to help disseminate machine learning education and research. It's a Jupyter notebook environment that requires no setup to use and runs entirely in the cloud. Read the blog post.

Web developers

TensorFlow.js is a WebGL accelerated, JavaScript library to train and deploy ML models in the browser, Node.js, mobile, and more.

Mobile developers

TensorFlow Lite is a lightweight solution for mobile and embedded devices.
